PUFFY (パフィー), known as Puffy AmiYumi in the United States, is a Japanese
pop-rock duo currently signed under Sony Music Japan's Ki/oon Records. The duo
debuted in 1996 with the single 'Asia no Junshin' under EPIC Records, which sold
over a million copies.

Puffy (パフィー, Pafī, stylized as PUFFY) is a Japanese pop rock duo formed in Tokyo
in 1995, consisting of singers Ami Onuki and Yumi Yoshimura. In the United
States, they adopted the name Puffy AmiYumi to avoid legal naming conflicts with
Sean Combs, who also performed under the name Puffy. They sing in Japanese and
English.

 * PUFFY (パフィー), known in the United States as Puffy AmiYumi, is a Japanese
   pop-rock group currently signed to Warner Music Japan. The band consists of
   two members: Ami Onuki (大貫 亜美.

Onuki and Yoshimura were scouted by Sony-affiliated talent agencies and put
together in the mid-1990s. Most of their work was produced or co-written by
Tamio Okuda and Andy Sturmer, formerly of the bands Unicorn and Jellyfish,
respectively.[1][2]

The pair's first release 'Asia no Junshin' (1996) sold a million records. They
gained mainstream success in Japan during 1998, following the release of their
album Jet CD and continued with several more full-length releases (totaling 15
million sales in Japan).[3]

In 2004, an animated series featuring cartoon versions of Onuki and Yoshimura,
Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi, premiered on the US Cartoon Network. Although their
characters were voiced by actresses, the singers portrayed themselves for short
live-action segments taped in Japan.


HISTORY[EDIT]


EARLY RECORDINGS[EDIT]

When she was in high school, Ami sang for a band called 'Hanoi Sex'. In her
sophomore year, the band auditioned during the Sony SD Audition and passed,
becoming employees of Sony Music Entertainment. Years went by with little action
by either the band or the record label, as Ami took vocal lessons and attended a
professional school to learn how to become a better performer. Eventually the
band dissolved, leaving only Ami under Sony's employment. She was encouraged to
stay, despite lacking a band and a clear musical direction.[4]

Separately, Yumi had learned of the Chotto Sokomade talent search underway by
Sony Music Artists when she was 'around 18'. She also auditioned and passed. She
moved on her own from Osaka to Tokyo, where she eventually met Ami by chance in
the Sony Music offices and then at a concert after-party, when the two hit it
off. Both felt alone within the large Sony organization and neither were
confident in their abilities as solo artists, so even though Ami had already
recorded a solo CD under the guidance of former Unicorn front-man Tamio Okuda
(it would later become half of solosolo), they requested Sony pair them as a
duo.[5]


AS PUFFY[EDIT]


PUFFY AMIYUMI ALBUMS

Producer and American pop musician Andy Sturmer christened them 'Puffy', and is
considered by Ami and Yumi as 'the godfather of Puffy'. Ami had previously met
Tamio Okuda at a Sparks Gogo concert, and he had produced her then-unreleased
solo CD. He was eventually signed on to produce Puffy's first album AmiYumi.
Their debut single, 'Asia no Junshin', launched Puffy-mania. Asked if they were
surprised by the attention after its success, Yumi told an interviewer '...
everything that was put together for that song all came together and made it
happen, but we didn't expect it. It was luck.'[6]

As 'Puffy-mania' exploded, they became multimedia stars, including hosting their
own weekly TV show Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa-Puffy with guests such as Lenny Kravitz,
Sylvester Stallone, Harrison Ford, and rock band Garbage.

PUFFY IN THE UNITED STATES[EDIT]

Puffy performing in New York City in 2006.

Puffy made their first US appearance as part of Music Japan's 'An Evening with
Japan's All-Stars' showcase at the 2000 South by Southwest (SXSW) festival in
Austin, Texas.[7] After their performance at SXSW, attorneys for Sean 'Puffy'
Combs sent the band a cease and desist letter asking them to change their name.
After changing their name in the US to Puffy AmiYumi, they told Entertainment
Weekly:[8]

Yumi: It doesn't bother us at all. We respect the fact that Puff Daddy is Puffy
in the U.S.
Ami: The bottom line is that we don't know what puffy means. We were given our
name by somebody else six years ago, and we really don't have a clue.

After Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa-Puffy ended production in 2002, Puffy focused on performing in
the United States. Several of their previous Japanese albums were released for
the US market and they recorded theme songs for the animated seriesTeen Titans
and SD Gundam Force. They have also done a cover version with Cyndi Lauper of
her hit 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun'. They were also interviewed on Jimmy Kimmel
Live! by Jimmy Kimmel[9] and performed their songs 'Hi Hi' and 'Akai Buranko'
(Red Swing)[10] on the show. They came back to the US in 2006 for their Splurge
Tour, and also toured with Tally Hall for Super-Ultimate Awesome Exploration
America 2006[11] In January 2017, they announced for the US tour titled Puffy
AmiYumi US TOUR 2017: NOT LAZY in April 2017.[12] In the same month, the band
made an appearance at Anime Boston for autograph signings.[13] After their
appearance at Boston Anime Convention they undertook a three city USA Tour which
they called their 'Not Lazy Tour' of the cities of San Francisco, Los Angeles,
and Dallas, Texas.


ANIMATED SERIES[EDIT]

On November 19, 2004, an animated series featuring cartoon versions of Ami and
Yumi, Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi, premiered on the United States' Cartoon Network.
Despite both of them being voiced by American actresses (though Janice Kawaye,
who plays Ami, is of Japanese descent), the real Ami and Yumi star in short
live-action segments taped in Japan. The show also featured some of Puffy's
music. Cartoon Network's Japan service started airing episodes of the series (in
English with Japanese subtitles) in 2005. In October of that year, TV Tokyo
began airing a Japanese-dubbed version of the series, which eventually also went
to CN Japan on January 8, 2006. Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi also debuted in other
countries such as Mexico, dubbed in Spanish, and Brazil, dubbed in Brazilian
Portuguese, both transmitted on Cartoon Network.

Yumi said in an interview with LiveDaily:[14]

Yumi: The Cartoon Network show has given us a great opportunity to introduce the
music to a new audience. When we toured, after the Cartoon Network show started,
so many little kids came to our show. We always wanted as many people as
possible to listen to the music.

Puffy AmiYumi made an appearance and performed in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day
Parade in 2005 where they were also represented by their own Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi
float and balloon.[15]


PUFFY AMIYUMI UREI

On January 16, 2006 Ami and Yumi were appointed goodwill ambassadors to the
United States as part of the Japanese government's campaign to encourage tourism
in Japan.[16] They kicked off their 10th anniversary tour in Japan on April 14,
2006, then toured the East Coast of the United States with the PuffyAmiYumi Tour
'06 Splurge! Splurge! Splurge! from July 8 to July 19, 2006, coinciding with the
premiere of their new television show, Hi Hi PUFFY Bu.

Ami and Yumi also performed cameo voice overs in an episode of the 2011 anime
series, Usagi Drop, which aired on July 8, 2011. They also performed the opening
theme to the anime.[17]


MUSICAL STYLE[EDIT]


PUFFY AMIYUMI NICE

Their music has been largely a collaboration between producer Tamio Okuda,
American singer-songwriter Andy Sturmer, and Ami and Yumi themselves. Ami and
Yumi's vocals have been likened to U.S. vocal sister group The Roches.[18] They
often sing whole songs together with harmonies and their sound borrows heavily
from The Beatles and other artists such as ABBA, The Who, and The Carpenters.
Both Ami and Yumi themselves have openly admitted that their music is hard to
put into just one genre because of the many different influences.[citation
needed]


INFLUENCES[EDIT]

They have mentioned Tamio Okuda, The Blue Hearts, Boom Boom Satellites, and
Blankey Jet City as their main influences, and named their album Jet CD after
Blankey Jet City.
